The illegally distributed vaccines against the COVID-19 virus might not have passed the Bureau of Customs (BOC), said Justice Secretary Menardo Guevarra.
‘One thing I noted in the initial NBI (National Bureau of Investigation) report: no findings that the early covid vaccines went through the customs area,” he said.
“They might have been brought in in convenient packages,” he added.
Guevarra noted that these might have been brought in “in a luggage, carry-on bag, etc.”
“Maybe through a private flight too,” he added.
“But the NBI has not specified these,” Guevarra said.
The secretary himself issued the order which instructed the NBI back in January “to conduct an investigation on the reported importation, sale, offering for sale, distribution, administration, and inoculation of COVID-19 vaccines that are not authorized by or registered with the Food and Drug Administration of the Philippines, and, if evidence warrants, to file the appropriate charges against all persons involved and found responsible for any unlawful act in connection therewith.”
